Fodor's Expert Review The Ocean Club
Ocean Club Dr., Paradise Island, New Providence Island, Bahamas Fodor's Choice
Once the private hideaway of A&P supermarket heir Huntington Hartford, this exclusive Four Seasons Resort on magnificent Cabbage Beach's quietest stretch provides the ultimate in understated—and decidedly posh—elegance. Its Versailles Gardens includes 35 acres of terraced serenity and an imported French cloister. Set amid private gardens, the spacious colonial-style rooms and villas have intricately carved furniture, marble bathrooms, and private butlers. Special touches include unpacking service, champagne and chocolate-dipped strawberries in the afternoon, regular shuttles to and from Atlantis, and privileges at the nearby golf course. The open-air restaurant and bar, Dune, is perched over the beach.
PROS
- ultra-exclusive
- lovely beach
- top-rated amenities
CONS
- not within walking distance of Atlantis
- limited (and very expensive) on-site dining
- Crescent Wing rooms have ocean views, but no pool nearby
